    We know Mayweather has a massive ego, Khan talking constant **** would have pissed him off and he doesn't want to give him a shot because of this. Mayweather doesn't need the money a Khan fight would make so I think its as simple as that.

      If you look at it unbiasedly yes he ducked him. Khan won that poll massively when floyd asked the fans to pick his next foe yet floyd picked maidana who he felt was slow and tailormade, only for maidana to beat floyd and get robbed. It was a cherry pick that nearly backfired, but floyd had insurance with the foam gloves last minute, and vegas still needs floyd so he will never lose.

      Floyd beats khan easy in my eyes. But floyd doing the poll only to pick maidana made floyd look bad, and maidana getting robbed and having to change his gloves last minute made floyd look bad.

          I thought that it was just Khan at first, but now I'm thinking the whole Khan fanbase might need to be put on suicide watch because of this announcement.

              It would have definitely looked that way had he lifted Brook's title, but he didn't learn anything from passing Alexander and really nobody in PBC camp is qualified for the spot because PBC MO is to produce cherry pickers. I can't believe Haymon's model will succeed when it makes ME want to watch the UFC.

                Of course he did.

                His career is based on ducking.

                  Ofcourse he did, Andre berto ffs lmao. He just struggled with Lopez for 5 rounds getting outboxed before the knockout. Every press member laughed when his name was mentioned, he clearly ducked Khan and Berto doesn't even bring in much money or hold a title, it was simply because Berto is garbage.

                    Well when you choose the lesser of 2 opponents then yes you'd have to call it a duck. Especially when Khan was willing to practically fight Floyd for FREE....
